Poems mourning the fall of Jerusalem and expressing hope in God's mercy.

Chapter 2

KJV - Lamentations 2:5

The LORD was as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel, he hath swallowed up all her palaces: he hath destroyed his strong holds, and hath increased in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.

The LORD seemed like a foe: he took away Israel, devouring all its grand places; he demolished its fortresses, causing more sorrow and wailing for the people of Judah.
